Default Rigging up

Guys,

I am writing from Trinidad and Tobago in the South Caribbean. We have a 6 month Sword Fish fishery on the north coast of our islands that the Small Commercial Long lines catch a fair amount of decent swords.

i have a fair amount of offshore(marlin, Sailfish) and Inshore experience however have never done a night Drift for a Sword.

Can any one who does this on a regular basis describe the rigging techniques and spread patterns that they have found effective for the Swords in their neck of the woods.

Any info will be greatly appreciated.

Wally

When you say rent do you mean charter or do you mean rent and take the boat out on your own.

If it is charter I can hook you up as I am involved as a mate and captain on a number of charter boats here in trinidad.

Let us know and I will give you details
